Israeli anger due to the delay to interrupt the fire is focused on the prisoners, not the crisis to help in Gaza | Israel-Palestine News of Conflict

As an Israeli government ticks on gauze cessation of fire Arranged between the IT -AI Palestinian group Hamas, delaying the progress of the second phase of the agreement, protesters gathered beyond the residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday night.

Yes, they were angry with his decision to unilaterally expand the first phase and frustrated because of his delays in complete conduct of the agreement, the mediator in January.

But their banners and slogans did not have references to the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, after Israel blocked humanitarian aid in the enclave on Sunday.

Instead, the focus was on Israeli prisoners Others in Gaza while Netanyahu pulls his legs, seemingly focusing on finding a way to avoid the end of the war.

The Israeli Government’s procedures appear to have directed on Sunday in the direction of the end of the ceasefire and the continuation of the comprehensive war against Gaza, even while the prisoners stay there.

Although the first phase of the ceasefire expired on Saturday, the agreement determined that the conditions of the ceasefire – including the flow of humanitarian aid in Gaza – continued while negotiations for the second phase continued.

However, on Sunday, Israel announced the appearance of “Witkoff’s Plan” – which refers to the envoy of the United States in the Middle East of Steve Witkoff – who will see half of the prisoners who were released immediately and the other half after the permanent trial agreement, basically rejecting the original certificate.

Israel took the opportunity of an agreement – which neither now even Witkoff confirmed its existence – to return their gauze blockade, sending food prices there.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) warned that the blockade of help carried “devastating consequences” for children and families in Gaza full of 16 months of war.

The collective sentence is banned in Geneva Conventions, said Professor Gerry Simpson of the London School of Economics for Al Jazeera, no matter who conducted it.

“The fact that it expresses itself as a form of sentence suggests a certain disrespect for the law of war, but this neglect does not make that laws null and void,” he said.

In addition to the suspension of assistance, the Israeli government also considers the approval of the law that would allow him to call 400,000 of his spare soldiers in anticipation of a renewed conflict in Gaza.

In the midst of October 7, 2023, 300,000 reserve soldiers were invited to Israel, the largest mobilization in Israel’s history at that time.

Angry families

While Israeli public anger for Netanyahu is not yet widespread because of the current breakup in the negotiations, the former Ambassador and General of Consul Israel in New York, Alon Pinkas, Al Jazeera said that he would probably grow if he started to continue, until it was “clear that it was” [Netanyahu] You are looking for an pronunciation to break up a dedication and thus condemn hostages to death. “

Destiny 251 or more prisoners trapped during an October 7th.

However, in recent weeks – where the images of prisoners who return to their families dominated the media – in turn raised the voices of their families, who are often critical of Netanyahu.

Those who protested outside Netanyahu’s residence on Sunday night, led by the families of the prisoners, made it clear that they consider the Prime Minister to be guilty of the deadline for completing the trial agreement.

At a press conference held by numerous captive families earlier on the same day, Lishay Miran-Lavi, whose husband Omri Miran remained in Gaza, rejected the claims of some members of the Israeli cabinet, including Netanyahu, that agreement that is not possible, while Hamas remains, speaking to journalists, “Tapaces,” Tames Afterwards. “

“Netanyahu knows that there is currently no monopoly about the narrative,” said Israeli political analyst Ordberg, “so there is a risk that with this delay could be found under the increased fire from the hostage family, who have a lot of public affection.”

Goldberg has suggested that, among other factors directly related to the political survival of Netanyahu, it can limit how long the current deadline can continue.

Bad faith

Skepticism over Netanyahu’s commitment to the Fire Interruption Agreement is not new. Since its inception, the Prime Minister has hinted at his willingness to interrupt the agreement to set up his critics, using the existence of a ceasefire to convince the prisoners of the prisoners and their supporters.

In January, Netanyahu hinted at his intention of interrupting his agreement when negotiating with his Minister of Finance Bezalel Festival to stay in the cabinet and not join the far -right -winger, the Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, to resign because of the possibility of reaching an agreement on a tribute fire with Hamas.

As part of his agreement with the Omotrich, Netanyahu stated that he assured the Minister of Finance that the cessation of fire was temporarily and that military operations in Gaza would continue to remove Hamas’ army and management abilities after the “temporary” truce was completed.

The negotiations on the permanent interruption of the fire were to be involved in the second phase.

“People don’t really believe Netanyahu,” said analyst Nimrod Flashberg of Tel Aviv. “Much to the public suspected the truce would be stayed from the beginning, but we really don’t know what happens next. A lot depends on [US President Donald] Trump administration. “

For many observers, all, from the delay in advancement to the second phase of the dedication agreement to the ambiguity of who suggested that his suspension is typical of the Prime Minister who has been profiting from sowing from his critics for years.

“That’s what he does,” Goldberg said. “This is what everyone in Israel expects from him. Politically, no reason to do so. There are no political rivals; there are settlers on [his] page. That’s just what he does. “

“For Netanyahu, these Byzantine schemes are key to maintaining an Israeli state ship on the way,” he said.

“What kind of public criticism there is that Netanyahu is not on the basis of what deprived of help or blocks negotiations, it is that it does it bad: sales are wrong,” Goldberg said. “They feel, if they had someone else, they could reduce the help of gauze and win the applause for it.”
